Trending : how and why stuff gets popular / by Vermond, Kira.; Hanmer, Clayton,1978-;
Includes bibliographical references and index."On the surface, fads and trends can seem silly or trivial. But if you dig deeper, you'll find fads can cause regular people to make some pretty irregular decisions in order to follow the latest craze. Fads can also have major long-term effects, such as the beaver pelt craze in 17th century Europe, which changed ecosystems, started wars, and disrupted or destroyed traditional ways of life. Divided into four chapters, Trending tackles the topics of: 1. Chapter One What Makes a Fad a Fad?: How seemingly random toys, games, and fashion turn into the Next Big Thing. 2. Chapter Two Spread the Word: How fads, and the ideas that drive them, spread and catch fire. 3. Chapter Three Made, Not Born: How fads can be carefully crafted to make us want to jump on board. 4. Chapter Four Bad Fads: How fads can have serious and even dangerous effects on the people drawn into the mania, not to mention those who get caught in the aftermath. 5. Trending ends with a conclusion focused on using knowledge gained about fads to make the world a kinder place. Plus index and selected bibliography. Comic-strip illustrations introduce each chapter and What Does It All Mean? sections on every spread offer insights and analysis. Written in Vermond's humour-filled, journalistic voice and illustrated in Hanmer's light-hearted cartoon style, Trending is a timely look at fads and trends for a world gone viral"--Provided by publisher.LSC

How medicine works and when it doesn't : learning who to trust to get and stay healthy / by Wilson, F. Perry,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."We live in an age of medical miracles. Never in the history of humankind has so much talent and energy been harnessed to cure disease. So why does it feel like it's getting harder to live our healthiest lives? Why does it seem like "experts" can't agree on anything, and why do our interactions with medical professionals feel less personal, less honest, and less impactful than ever? Through stories from his own practice and historical case studies, Dr. F. Perry Wilson, a physician and researcher from the Yale School of Medicine, explains how and why the doctor-patient relationship has eroded in recent years and illuminates how profit-driven companies-from big Pharma to healthcare corporations-have corrupted what should have been medicine's golden age. By clarifying the realities of the medical field today, Dr. Wilson gives readers the tools they need to make informed decisions, from evaluating the validity of medical information online to helping caregivers advocate for their loved ones, in the doctor's office and with the insurance company. Dr. Wilson wants readers to understand medicine and medical science the way he does: as an imperfect and often frustrating field, but still the best option for getting well. To rebuild trust between patients, doctors, medicine, and science, we need to be honest, we need to know how to spot misinformation, and we need to avoid letting skepticism ferment into cynicism. For it is only by redefining "good medicine"-science that is well-researched, rational, safe, effective, and delivered with compassion, empathy, and trust-that the doctor-patient relationship can be truly healed"--
